Thank you for this video. It popped up right on time; I’m off to the plant shop.

I live in the eastern US hardiness zone 7. Tons of Basjoo in our gardens. I've successfully grown Musa sikkimensis 'Red Tiger' and seen the pink fruited banana Musa velutina, growing that this year.

Hellens hybrid and Tibet are also root jardy craig. Especially hellens hybrid is the more stunning looking version of sikkimensis. Less hardy for the aboveground part - ive lost pseudostems 3 consecutive yrs, but it keeps coming back!!

Interesting specimens, but Dwarf Namwah and Dwarf Brazillian are hands down the two best Cold hardy eating bananas to grow for food. Anyone who wants to grow bananas in a zone lower than 8, do it right and invest in building a sunroom on the south side of your house with about a 12' ceiling height, that stays above 50 deg during winter nights. Not that difficult to do and so worth the investment.

There is no edible bananas with zone lower than 8, and even in zone 8b my dwarf cavendish faces some challenges. The edible bananas for zone 8 is also dwarf Orinoco and maybe dwarf cavendish. I don’t live in USA and not even in UK so I don’t my hardiness zone, but I am approximately between zone 8b and 9a.

The Rojo, sikimemsis etc are my absolute favorite plant of all. I believe I have rojo or blood banana. They're fairly hardy and have beautiful 😍 variagated leaves. And I agree with the sunlight to deep color ratio. An absolute dream for color collabs in the garden. I have some tiger lilies and habiscus. Wowowow the musochis is very interesting. I'll keep my eyes open for that beauty! Soo appreciative of this vid. Peace N Love

Are those banana tree's fruits edible/palatable ? I expect them to have seeds unlike store's bananas, but what about the pulp ?

Hi, for 5 years I have been growing Musa Itinerans in my garden in the province of Rome, the only problem is that it is extremely invasive.

I have 2 M.B. in the ground with pups doing well. About 6 ft high. I also bought a sikkimenisis this year on line. It was 10 inch and now in a pot 3ft. I have no room or to be honest the capability to put in the ground due to health issues. I worry to where to put this one over Winter. If Ieave the pot outside will it be OK or is the garage better?. I am in Cornwall. Love your videos, very instructive. 🪴

Great info video thanks! I don't have any bananas but am looking to get one/some and this is really helpful. You give hardiness in US zones but not UK zones... is there a reason for this? Are the US ones more accurate than the RHS ones?

USDA zones are more frequently used globally, you can find USDA zone maps for the UK on Google 😀 I always says the temps in °F and °C though 👍

Great video. Im a bit confused 😂. Does the standard sikkimensis have the red markings on on the top(stripes)? Only iv been growing what i thought was a musa sikkimensis its about 3 yr old now and never seen stripped leaves on it, it does have the red underside and is planted in full sun.I have grown sikkimensis red tiger that had the stripes. What have i got?😂😂

They both have stripes, but in the standard Musa sikkimensis the markings can be variable. The cultivar ‘Red/Bengal Tiger’ is a clone of a well marked form of Musa sikkimensis. I hope that helps? 😀

There's no way musa sikkimensis is root hardy to -10C. Not even close in my experience. All your temperature figures are very optimistic in my opinion. Is your velutina still alive?

Nice choices. I was able to get a hold of a couple of Musa Sumatrana Zebrina earlier this year and love them the streaks of dark burgundy in the leaves is beautiful. Not sure about how hardy yet will leave one protected outside and bring other in planted in a pot to see how they do. Always enjoy when you feature tropicals with giant leaves
